Description I'll apologize now... so followers? You guys will be spammed with so many pictures of this costume. Because I now have a lot and I love them ALL. >D Thanks <3

So many thanks to the fantastic Elemental ([link] ) for doing this shoot with me! It was ridiculous fun and you are the best

Costume: God Tier Rose Lalonde, the Seer of Light
Series: Homestuck

Man, I am still ridiculously happy with how this costume turned out!! The response so far has been more than I ever expected.

Main body of the dress is made of this... to be quite honest I'm not sure exactly what it is. Some sort of polyester/spandex thing. I found it in the bargain section of a fabricland and yoinked all they had left. I love the colour and how well it's been able to drape! The brighter orange is all a stretch twill. All patterns were drafted. The entire costume was hemmed using an embroidery stitch on my machine to add a little more detail to the costume.

The applique was definitely the hardest part of this costume. All fabric pieces itself I made one stencil for and cut the rest out of those to ensure they were all the same, and they were bonded to the costume with heat n'bond. Then, I hand-stitched around all the pieces with a slightly contrasting embroidery thread. I'm so happy it turned out nice and not hokey XD

Thanks for looking!

I like how the fabric end flows in the pictures, what kind of fabric did you use, or is there some kind of trick to it?

Thank you so much! I'm very happy you think so

I actually used a stretch fabric similar to a spandex. It was light and flowed really nicely which was a good chunk why I picked it for the costume ^^ it just draped so nicely~ mostly in these pictures it was a manner of placing it that way in the shots, but the way I cut the fabric to expand outward closer t the bottom made it stat even while standing straight the fabric draped nicely downwards! But it was definitely mostly in the fabric, as if. Used a twill or cotton or something like that I don't think it would have draped that nicely~

Not technically, since the update wasn't out yet, but now basically XD At the time we just thought it reaaally appropriate for Rose to have a book
